The One

THE ONE is based on the futuristic premise that there is more than one universe: there are many parallel universes, each of which contain a slightly different version of every person who has ever lived. Yulaw (Jet Li) is a rogue agent from the Multiverse Bureau of Intelligence who has learned that, by traveling from one parallel universe to another and killing the alternate versions of himself, he gains his counterparts' strength, speed and intelligence. After killing one hundred and 23 parallel versions of himself, Yulaw has gained almost unstoppable power--and there is only one version of himself left, Gabriel Law (Jet Li), a Los Angeles cop. Yulaw travels to the universe that houses his nemesis, followed by a pair of agents intent on stopping him from killing Gabe and either gaining near-godlike powers, or destroying the fabric of all existence. Gabe is confused to find himself being hunted and shot at by himself, but with the help of his wife T.K. (Carla Gugino) and the Multiverse cops (Delroy Lindo and Jason Statham), Gabe engages Yulaw in a series of spectacular fights to become the One. Glen Morgan and James Wong, creators of FINAL DESTINATION and several memorable episodes of THE X-FILES, direct this mind-bending martial-arts extravaganza.

    • "...Wong adds real muscle to the high concept with a string of truly excessive action sequences....It's like an insane Japanese Manga flick in live action..."

    The Expendables - Blu-ray

    Statham & Li happy to redeem themselves in Expendables

    • 25 Aug 2010

    Jason Statham was grateful for the chance to reteam with Jet Li in The Expendables - so the action duo could redeem themselves for their past movie flops. The British movie hunk previously starred alongside Li in the movies The One and War, which were widely panned by critics. Statham was disappointed in their previous collaborations but jumped at the chance to work with Li again in Sylvester Stallone's new blockbuster - so the pair could finally be proud of their big-screen partnership. He... Read more
